Editorial Note by Webmaster Jim Dearmore: Some articles we have posted (or will publish) on our Web Sites have dealt with, (or will deal with) various passages quoted from the Koran. To help some readers find certain quotes, like Sura 9.5 (Sura: 9, Ayat 5, or The Immunity 9.5), we have copied the following notes on the Koran, as noted above. (In addition to the notes below, it is also well to keep in mind that there are several different English translations of the Koran, or Qu'ran, with relatively minor variations between them.)

The Koran consists of 114 chapters, called Suras, they are also given names. Sura 1 is called The Opening, Sura 9 would be The Immunity, and so on (see below for the complete list of Suras).

So, Sura 9.123 would be The Immunity, verse (Ayat) 123, which reads:

"O you who believe! fight those of the unbelievers who are near to you
and let them find in you hardness; and know that Allah is with those who
guard (against evil)."

Sura 9.5 would be The Immunity, verse (Ayat) 5, which reads:

"So when the sacred months have passed away, then slay the idolaters
wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in
wait for them in every ambush, then if they repent and keep up prayer and
pay the poor-rate, leave their way free to them; surely Allah is Forgiving,
Merciful."

You might find the above referred to as: The Immunity 9.123, The Immunity
9.5, or as quoted Sura: 9, Ayat 123, and Sura: 9, Ayat 5, and so on.

Sura: 4, Ayat: 91 quoted in part:

".... then seize them and kill them wherever you find them; and against
these We have given you a clear authority."
